The shoes that I got were a pair of sneakers in L-Girls size: <a href=\"http:\/\/leekeworld.com\/En\/Product\/p_view.asp?it_code=5991&#038;B_catalog_num=29\" target=\"_blank\">LS-287_G<\/a>. I have a Vito guy from Souldoll and his feet are bigger than my 65cm female dolls&#8217;, so he can&#8217;t wear MSD shoes but then 60cm+ boys&#8217; shoes are too big to him. In the general category for the L-Girls shoes, they list the size as 6.7cm. I thought that the <strong>maximum<\/strong> outer lenght for the shoes couldn&#8217;t be more than 8cm. So, they should work fine for my Vito guy whose foot lenght is around 7.3mm.<\/p>\n<p>Well, today I get the shoes, and they seem quite big to me. I measured them and lo and behold: the outer lenght for the shoes is 8.9cm. If they list their L-Girls&#8217; feet size as 6.7cm, 8.9cm is over two centimetres bigger than that.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 533px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/eternalwinter.org\/doll\/leeke_shoesLS-287_G.jpg\" width=\"533\" height=\"800\" border=\"1\" class \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A photo of the shoe with a ruler.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Now, I realise that the outer lenght of the shoe HAS to be bigger than the lenght of the doll&#8217;s foot. But 8.9cm, really? What in the world&#8230; Not to mention, there are no measurements listed on those particular sneakers&#8217; page. So, if I buy these shoes that <strong>don&#8217;t<\/strong> have any special measurements listed, of course I&#8217;m going to assume that they are the same size as their standard shoes for L-Girls, which is around 7.5~7.9cm, depending on the shoe. But yeah, definitely <strong>not<\/strong> bigger than 8cm in outer lenght.<\/p>\n<p>So, I messaged to Leeke about this problem and requested that they would list individual measurements for each shoe in the future to avoid any more misunderstandings. For once they got back to me within the same day, but&#8230; well, see for yourselves:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Dear customer<br \/>\nThank you for shopping with Leekeworld.<\/p>\n<p>We checked your order.<br \/>\nWe are so sorry about this problem.<\/p>\n<p>When we make the Sneakers in Leekeworld. we made them larger than the actual doll&#8217;s feet size.<br \/>\nWe thought it looks better when we take photos and wears the Sneakers.<br \/>\nSo we are making the Sneakers larger.<\/p>\n<p>The G size is bigger than G size.<br \/>\nThe L size is bigger than L size.<br \/>\nThe LL size is bigger than LL size.<\/p>\n<p>If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks a lot and have a good day.<br \/>\nFrom Leekeworld<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8230; all I can say is&#8230; what in the world?!
